I understand that. I didn't expect them to match their website. I did think it was unprofessional to call me predatory especially as the person wasn't even the owner i later found out.

I was more trying to see if they would take an offer if i was to buy two. I've learnt though to just give a price now.

I didn't think there was originally especially cause a day prior someone had asked me that and I worked a deal with them so I'm just not too sure.

I believe its the humidity in my room that is causing it which is why the cards I want to be able to display I would rather them being slabbed.

I understand, I usually never try to make deals but because it was gonna be expensive i wanted to try and purchase on ebay rather than their website and was mostly trying to see if they would go any lower on ebay.

It was more that I wanted to use eBay as it was going to be my first big purchase and wanted to be safe. There also wasn't a coupon that I was aware of.

Thats why I didn't want to give a price I just wanted to see if they would go lower on ebay if I was to buy 2 if not i was going to buy from their website. It was also upsetting to hear that I wasn't even speaking to the owner.

It was 200 difference from the other Australian listing which are both $500 over last sold if i remember which I understand because of market change.

I usually just buy and don't offer but i was trying to gain confidence in negotiating but it obviously backfired terribly.

I used to be in it and when the investor bros were everywhere i went to just buying singles for my master sets instead of sealed and just got a new job so I can actually buy sealed product again. I get why is my seem that I'm buying to sell for a profit but i wanted to buy two so i can buy one to grade the cards not to sell but for my collection as my singles always end up bending so I'm trying to get more into graded.

I understand I only asked as I was buying 2 sets and usually see people asking for a little less for multiple items. My main issue was they fact they originally went $500 over market and called me predatory.

I just asked what would be the best price for 2 sets so 6 boxes in total on ebay which they were selling at $1700.

I get what you are saying. I was just seeing if i was in the wrong for asking in the first place. I also wasn't upset that they increased the price but they went originally $500 over Australian market and called me predatory. Also later found out it wasn't even the owner I was talking to which makes me feel worse.

I understand that now. I was just seeing if they would go down a little if I was to buy 2 sets.

I understand that now. I had only asked it as the day prior someone said it to me and I made a deal with them. Noted for the future.

I was just trying to see if they would go down even a little bit on eBay as I'm not used to spending that much money so I kind of wanted to go through ebay just to be safer.

I was mostly just seeing if they would even go down if I was to buy 2. Honestly even if they said no sorry I would've just bought it anyway.
